Well I sort of don't really want to start to work on small fixes, but rather start to refactor/rewrite code on a larger scale, before actually digging into making much modifications. In general I do mind the exhaustive tracing which is performed in AI code, as this is likely one of the biggest perfo...

The first thing I came across that if you set bAdvancedTactics to true you get AlterDestination() events, Botpacks Bots class is implemented as: // called when using movetoward with bAdvancedTactics true to temporarily modify destination event AlterDestination() { local float dir, dist; dist = VSize...

Though I'm certainly looking forward to overhaul AI code for HX, I have basically not touched AI much apart from fixing a shitload of MP related issues and fixing a few minor bugs as the teleporter related pathnode crashes and shooting through transparent movers and tweak the difficulty setting a bi...

Of course this would probably be looked down upon in a professional environment, but on the players end they won't even be able to tell a damn thing except that it is fixed, and the user experience is all I really give a crap about. Development of HX really changed the way I approach progamming. I ...

Nobody has managed it, but there must be a way. Does HX count? However, for SinglePlayer here is the roadmap what one needs to do to properly fix it. The basic problem is that the game does a travels with bItems and manually tries to reset all player state, which is bad and error prone. So the basi...

To clarify things about. With missing precission of the lightmaps I was not refering to the spatial resolution of them, but to the color (depth).

Regarding mouse 3 & 4 support and HXMenuScreenCustomizeKeys How come the arrays have 35+ more elements than vanilla (most are [61])? IIRC I did this change, so we could use the code in Revision too. Biomod/Shifter has some extra commands, but they just increased the count of the array to exactly ma...

A while back I found that Zone Ambient Lighting even with a value of 1 is too bright, which obviously isn't too good for stealth gameplay. I'm going to do more tests though as it may apply nicely on specific maps/zones. The problem which all hardware render devices carried around was that they comp...

I now know why Deus Ex looks like a pile of crap. The two main factors for limiting visuals are on one hand that Deus Ex uses a (compared to Unreal, Nerf, ...) extremely low light level which results in wasting a lot of the close to barely enough available precission of lightmaps for surfaces, so qu...

Thanks for the info.

Thanks for the heads up. Actually I did yesterday make up some bitmap font source textures for TinyFont consisting of Basic Latin, Latin-1 Supplement and Latin Extended-A, but I didn't had the General Punctuation in mind and already started writing a replacement bitmap font importer which can import...

Which unicode range does hungarian actually use/need?

Apparently if a TextWindow has no own font set, it uses the Font of the RootWindow (probably of the next parent window with font). So the SetFont call in Extension.RootWindow.InitWindow sets implicit the Font used for the Version Window at the bottom of the MainMenu. SetFont(Font'TechMedium'); I'll ...

I figured out a way to prepare "special" 2x UI scale fonts. Special in terms of, though they have the doubled resolution, you can just use them instead of the old 1x versions and they still consume the right amount of space (e.g. they will appear at the same size as the old 1x font in 2x scale). So ...

I added export for the ExtStrings used by the InformationDevices stored inside DeusExText.u to fullbatchexport (and noticed that i screwed up the preprocessor so the UExtStringExporterTXT was not build into the last HTK release). Additionally I created a UExtStringFactoryTXT for importing the these ...
